Chapter 66
After hearing Honoka's words, Eli and the others felt a bit dazed.
However, at that moment, Tojo Nozomi's beautiful eyes flickered with a deep, thoughtful light.
Kosaka-san is an extraordinary talent!
Honoka was currently unaware that the look Nozomi-senpai was giving her contained a sense of "appreciation."
She was still enthusiastically describing the beautiful blueprint of the future she imagined to the Student Council President, Eli Ayase-senpai.
"Even though musical works and other things are very important for a school idol group,"
"In my opinion, the most important thing is still talent!"
"Choosing the right target, thinking of every way to move their heart, and inviting them to join the group! As long as everyone works together sincerely, we can definitely solve any problem we face!"
"Right now, I've almost succeeded in recruiting a first-year student who is very skilled in music composition!"
"Then for the lyrics, Umi-chan can handle them!"
"The costumes Kotori designs are also very, very cute!"
"And I won't let everyone down! I will try my hardest to find talent throughout the entire school and use my sincerity to move everyone's hearts!"
"So President, you have to support us! My friends and I can definitely establish an idol group that will leave everyone in awe!"
The fact that Eli Ayase had become the Student Council President was proof enough that her intelligence and ability were above average.
From Kosaka-san's words, she caught several key points.
Namely, that these three girls in front of her did indeed have their own respective strengths.
Umi could write lyrics, and Kotori could design clothes. Then there was Honoka, who was persistent and fully determined to be the "recruitment leader."
Was the "hope" Mineo-kun mentioned really going to manifest through these girls?
Eli Ayase took a deep breath, then looked at Honoka and the others calmly.
"Establishing a school idol group is a task with an unusual level of difficulty. To be more precise, anyone can fantasize and draw up a beautiful blueprint for the future."
"If you want the Student Council to give you support, then prove to me that you are capable."
"One week!"
"I can give you one week. After one week, I will bring the Student Council members to see the results of your hard work."
"During this one week, the Student Council will not provide any assistance to you. How specifically you gain my recognition depends entirely on your performance."
"One week!?"
Hearing Eli-senpai's words, Honoka felt a massive weight of pressure.
"President... This time... this is too short! We haven't even..."
"If you feel you cannot do it, you can choose to give up right now."
"President... I..."
Seeing the look in Eli-senpai's eyes, which showed not even a flicker of emotional fluctuation, Honoka stomped her foot lightly.
"I understand! One week from now, I will definitely make the President see the perfect side of our group!"
After Honoka and the others left, Eli picked up the water glass on the edge of the desk and took a small sip.
However, her gaze remained fixed on the surface of the water, as if something inexplicable was flowing within it.
And at that moment, Tojo Nozomi's soft voice rang out:
"The President is giving off a rather strange feeling today, isn't she?"
"Eh???"
Hearing Nozomi's words, Eli subconsciously jerked her head up.
"Nozomi... what are you saying?"
"I mean, President, your behavior today seems very unusual to me!"
"I thought you would reject those three girls without hesitation. After all, in my memory, Eli isn't someone who is easily swayed just because of someone's words."
Seeing the strange glint in her best friend's eyes, Eli's face flushed slightly!
"I... I was just thinking about whether establishing this school idol group could actually be of help to the school."
"But if they can't earn my recognition, I will still firmly reject them."
"Is that so?"
Tojo Nozomi showed an incredibly gentle smile.
However, the way she smiled gave off the impression of an adorable little fox.
"Let's set aside the school idol group for now! There's something else about the President that makes me very curious!"
"Earlier, while the President was working, you picked up your phone and chatted with someone. I also noticed that Eli was smiling very happily."
"Is the President in love? Is the other party a student from a nearby school? Do you need me to help evaluate him?"
"In... In love!?"
Hearing Nozomi's words, Eli felt a surge of panic.
In an instant, she became incredibly tense.
Her face turned crimson from the stress, making her subconsciously protest with a nervous stammer.
"No, that's not it at all!"
"I... I was just chatting with a good friend..."
"A good friend? Eh? As I recall, Eli doesn't have many close friends, does she?"
"Yes... we're good friends I met online! We've known each other for a long time! I just haven't told you about it yet, Nozomi! Nozomi... don't misunderstand..."
